Anita May Rosenstein Campus Ground Breaking Ceremony

“One of the joys of being a board member of the Los Angeles Development Fund is to know that our work contributes to life changing projects like this one.” Perry said. “The LADF has committed to giving the Los Angeles LGBT Center 10 million dollars toward the building of a unique facility that provides support services and much needed housing, including 100 affordable housing units for seniors, 100 beds for homeless youth and 35 units of permanent supportive housing for youth. The Center is building the new campus to assist and save thousands of LGBT youth and seniors over the years.”

The new campus will include on-site supportive services and a commercial kitchen to supply meals to tenants and those staying in the shelter space. It will also hold the LGBT Center administrative offices, which allows the Center’s current headquarters on Schrader Boulevard to become a dedicated health services facility.

In addition to being a LADF Board Member, Jan Perry is also the current General Manager of the City of Los Angeles Economic and Workforce Development Department, and a former 3-term Los Angeles City Councilwoman.
